I know lexiem :P I love a lot of the LOTR names but I don't think I'll use them in the book. I'll put them on my long list though for baby names ^_^Day 5 without power sitting at the library >.<

@ auroradawn: Hyperion goes by Izzy with close friends (from his middle name Isadore) and sometimes Hype, which is adorable to me.

Cute! Hyperion Isadore is a handsome name. It's just long and unfamiliar enough that I would have been surprised if he went exclusively by the unshortened Hyperion. Still, my brother goes by his full first name, Barnabas, without too much trouble.

"He telleth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names."
Psalm 147:4

It is handsome. He goes by the full a lot of the times, but yea, sometimes it's just easier having a nickname with a long name like that. His older daughter is ThaliaCallista and she goes by Lele (leelee) sometimes (her name pronounced the Greek way -- thay-lee-uh).

You guys can keep suggesting if you'd like. I can't respond too quickly as I'm still without power (6 days now). I'll respond when I can though.

Or.en.da.el (periods for search reasons). Pronounced Oren-dell (most of her friends say it this way) or Or-wrendl (Her dad and siblings say it this way). Apparently means eternal flame of love in some Indian language (she's not Indian though)

Dantea, as a fellow Arkansan I wanted to say sorry you're still without power. We were for about six hours and it sucked. I can't imagine being without for a week.
I'm not real knowledgeable on the rare and obscure, but I thought I'd share a family name that I had never heard before and can't find anything about it. Kerzell. I believe it may be German, but I really have no idea. It's a female middle name that can be seen over and over again in my family tree.
I hope you get power again soon!
